When there is a Plunger near, generally it's a hint------

...not to mention the price tags.

That last one is the only one I reall understood. Wow! How can you get something so wrong. The DIY books aren't all that screwed up.

Yes, I don't understand why he didn't just connect to the bathroom basin drain in pic 2. Would the washer blow trap water back up into the sink??

When you sniff that much glue things bound to go wrong.
